Chapter 449: Raid on Pengyi
Yang Zilu also did not convene and lead the army to rescue Shu County, although Shu County was besieged, but Fan Li still couldn't capture it for a while. Coupled with having himself on one side, how can Fan Li go all out!
Yang Zilu and Fan Li were in a stalemate for half a month, and Yang Zilu slowly vacated his troops, and still did not play his banner. The light cavalry of the 1,000-feather Lin army was placed in the rear army and the middle army, and even the scouts were also used by the Eastern Chu army. In this way, even with Fan Li's wit, he couldn't imagine that Yang Zilu was already under his nose.
On the contrary, it was the Vietnamese army, after learning that the 5,000 Eastern Chu Army was dispatched, some generals wanted Fan Li to ask for battle. Fan Li was also a little moved when he heard this, but after thinking about it, Fan Li still decided to retreat ten miles.
Afterwards, he explained to the general: "It is not cost-effective for us to start a war with the enemy now, and it is easy to be flanked by the front and rear. Second, if the enemy is defeated, he can retreat into Shu County under the cover of a strong bow. But if we retreat, we will give the enemy the illusion that we are afraid of them. Combined with the strength of the city, their overall strength is not much worse than ours, so do you think they will continue to hold on? Of course not, when we go out of the city to face them, we can catch them all! ”
It's a pity that Fan Li thought wrong, if someone else came to lead the army, maybe he would go out of the city to fight, but it was a pity that Yang Zilu came to lead the army. And Yang Zilu didn't have time to take care of Fan Li, because of Fan Li's retreat.
Yang Zilu didn't even have a reason to be injured, forcing Yang Zilu to finally kill Shu Shudou by force, so Yang Zilu is now rectifying the army's morale and killing Shu Shudou's relatives and cronies. The other generals were also very shocked, and when the army's morale was unstable, even if there were 100,000 troops, it would be impossible for Yang Zilu to fight at this time.
Of course, this is not the only reason, in Yang Zilu's plan, Chonghu and Xia You are the main forces to deal with Yue Guo, and he is just to contain Gou Jian.
…………
"How long is it until Pengyi?" Chonghu asked the guide in an unkind tone. Of course, there was a reason for his bad tone, this guide had already led them down the wrong path three times, and if it weren't for the lack of other guides, Chonghu would have clicked this guy a long time ago. Not to mention that they don't have much food now, and if they can't get out of this damn jungle, they probably won't have to leave again.
"There's still about half an hour to go!" The guide wiped the cold sweat that had just broken out on his forehead, and said with some trepidation.
"Humph! The best! Otherwise, General Ben will give you a taste of what it means to be cut by a thousand knives! Chonghu snorted coldly and said murderously.
"You can't go wrong this time!" The guide almost swore by the heavens.
Chonghu didn't continue to talk to the guide, he turned his head and asked his lieutenant. "How many soldiers are there left to use?"
"It's just 2,000 people! Fortunately, they were all selected from the Shanyue people, otherwise the miasma, poisonous snakes, and poisonous insects alone would be enough for our 2,500 people to be wiped out! The adjutant sighed and said in a low mood.
"How many people have died?" Chonghu was silent for a while and asked.
"There is already a wounded soldier dead at breakfast today, and this is already the seventy-two!" The adjutant general said in a gloomy mood.
Chonghu gritted his teeth, pulled out the knife on his waist, slashed at the big tree on the side, gritted his teeth and said: "This damn Yue Dog, Lao Tzu will know how powerful you will be when you arrive in Pengyi!" ”
Chonghu said, and looked at the guide who led the way in front of him viciously. said murderously: "Don't lead Lao Tzu to the wrong way again!" Otherwise, Lao Tzu will kill you today! ”
The guide did not dare to answer, for his lips were so white with fear that he did not know what to say. In fact, the guide is not sure, after all, there has always been no people walking around in this jungle, and there are paths connecting paths. The guide could only pray secretly in his heart.
Fortunately for him, although it was not half an hour to get out of this jungle, but an hour, he also managed to get out of the jungle and reached the destination. Outside the jungle, Chonghu saw a large-scale earthen city in the distance. And there can be such a large Tucheng in this vicinity, obviously only the national capital of Yue - Pengyi!
"You're in luck, old bastard!" Chonghu said to the guide with a grin.
The guide wiped the sweat from his forehead and nodded with a smile.
After Chonghu said this, he ignored the guide and instructed the lieutenant general: "Retreat into the jungle, rest for a day, make siege ladders and rams, and raid Pengyi early tomorrow morning!" ”
"No!" The adjutant general answered and went down to arrange the encampment.
The soldiers were glad to hear that they could rest, and they were tired all these days. Everyone slept happily for five or six things, and then they got up for dinner.
Early the next morning, the Han army lined up in a clearing outside the jungle.
Chonghu held a wide shield in one hand and a spear in the other, the spear pointed at Peng Yi, and roared at the soldiers behind him: "See? Ahead is Pengyi, our destination! ”
Chonghu said, glancing at the soldiers, but the soldiers were not very interested, the long march had already smoothed out the excitement they had just begun, and it could even be said that the morale was a little low now.
Chonghu gritted his teeth and roared: "Capture Pengcheng and set up troops for a day!" On this day, everything you do is the same! ”
"Whew!! ......" Although it is said that morale is low, when I heard this, the people of Erqian Shanyue felt as if they had eaten ginseng fruit, and the people's morale was greatly shaken. Wild, holding up the weapon in his hand and roaring like a beast.
"Attack!" Chonghu gritted his teeth and roared, and immediately led the army towards Pengyi.
There is nothing wrong with Pengyi being the country of the Yue Kingdom, but the main forces of the Yue Kingdom have been transferred to both sides of the Yangtze River in the Chaoxian and Puzhou areas. In Gou Jian's view, the Han army must pass through the Yangtze River when attacking Yue, so Pengyi only left 300 people, and they were the old, weak, sick and disabled.
But Yang Zilu launched an attack from Gou Jian's most unexpected place, and although Peng Yi closed the city gate in time, the troops were too small, and it was too sudden, and everyone was unprepared.
Not to mention that the people of Shanyue were all inspired by Chonghu's promise, and everyone became fearless of death. The gates were closed, but there were siege ladders. In the fierce and death-defying attack of the Shanyue people, it was only the first round of attacks, and the Vietnamese army collapsed.
Soon the city of Pengyi was filled with black smoke, and there were screams of women everywhere, and Shanyue soldiers grinning with a large pile of belongings on their backs. The blood turned the yellow earth dark red, a stark contrast to the excited Shanyue soldiers.
